LAC9 will be teaming up with The Compassion Project to help the homeless community living on Venice Beach.  Please consider donating to The Compassion Project; everything donated will be distributed to the homeless at Venice Beach.

Per Staci Wilkes:

Friends, don’t forget we are in need of socks, shoes and clothes for the event I’m doing in Venice Beach for the homeless! They are in desperate need of these items and so I want to have the event either end of this week or early next week. Please go through your closets & ask friends/family members to do the same!  If you don’t have any items you yourself are getting rid of, then how about either making a monetary donation or going to the store and purchasing something to donate?  I know The Dollar Tree now sells socks and I believe even t-shirts. Ross also has cheap socks, underwear, boxers, etc. Please let me know if you have donations and I will arrange to pick up!  If you choose to make a monetary donation, my Paypal is: . Thank you!

For further information, please contact Staci Wilkes at (818) 912-1710 or Claudia Perez at (323)812-9836.

Two Dogs in Need

  Pets in Need

Two dogs were dumped in my South LA yard the other day. Both un-neutered males are dog, cat, people and children friendly and seem to be around a year old.

These 2 little fur balls need a RESCUE!  Please share them to anyone and everyone in the hopes that we can find a rescue or forever family. Thank you!

The truck is LOADED!  Time to hit the streets of South Central LA & Skid Row, Los Angeles to give out pillows, blankets, sandwiches, fruit, water, dog & cat food, tents and tarps.

These are your donations at work!  Please consider donating $5 dollars to help us feed the homeless and their animals. Thank you!
